I am happy to announce that I will take part in a very exciting workshop in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil organized by the AA – Architectural Association School of Architecture. The workshop titled MATERIA PRIMA organized by AA tutors and SUBdv directors Franklin Lee and Anne Save de Beaurecueil will investigate “global and local sensibilities, between formal and informal economies, as well as between high-tech and low-tech fabrication processes”.
The really exciting part is that we will working with the materials from the over-the-top Rio Carnival 2011 season – from giant articulated folkloric toys to colourful costumes and crazy platforms. The workshop is open for all design students and professionals from all over the world. To recap: hands on workshop in Rio de Janeiro, using lots of high-low tech architectural techniques to deal with the RAW Materials from the Carnival 2011.
The dates are: April 5-14
